Frequently asked questions
A glove box is a lidded storage compartment located in the dashboard in front of the passenger seat. Its main purpose is to safely store important documents, such as insurance papers or any other documentation you are required to carry. It can also be used to keep personal items such as sunglasses.
The main reason is the cost saving, as the price is lower than that of a new part from the manufacturer. It is also the best option for finding a compatible glove box if your car model is older or is no longer in production.
Like other car parts, this is not a universal component — glove boxes are designed specifically for each vehicle model, and can even vary depending on the year of manufacture, trim level, or version. In short: it is essential that the glove box you purchase is compatible with the exact make, model, and year of your car.
More than different types, it really comes down to the extras they may include. For example, some glove boxes feature a key lock for added security, others have interior lighting to make it easier to find items inside, and others may be cooled or include special compartments.
It is very important to make sure it is the same make and model as your car so that it fits perfectly. Remember, it is not a universal part and not all glove boxes are compatible with every type of car. You can of course also consider other factors such as color and finish to ensure it looks right in the dashboard, or whether it includes any additional features such as a locking mechanism.
It is a straightforward part to install — simply unscrew the old glove box and fit the new one in its place. That said, if it includes an electronic locking mechanism or interior lighting, you may need to connect some wiring.
The most common causes tend to be:
- Broken hinges, which prevent the lid from opening or closing properly.
- The locking mechanism has stopped working.
- The plastic or lid has warped, or there is a crack.
